    Are these transistors interchangeable?

    Im trying to fix a no power Lenovo edge 520 laptop. There are two power switching transistors 4835D, out of which one seems to be out of function. No reading by the multimeter when tested with ground. I have a spare board that has the 4407 transistors on it, and I was wondering if I could change the 4835D with the 4407?

    Spec sheets are here: http://www.alldatasheet.com/view.jsp?Searchword=4835D

    Re: Are these transistors interchangeable?

    The picture isn't really helpful for IDing parts. If you can use higher resolution, better focus and no flash and specify exactly what it is and what you want us to see.

    The 1st link doesn't show any specs for a 5835, the second doesn't either. I can't find any specs matching 5835 to any MOSFET P-channel that the 4407 is. The closest I see there is a NTMS5835NL, which is an N-chanel MOSFET and is NOT interchangeable with the 4407.

      Both model you mentioned are p channel MOSFET. So it will work.

        May I ask how you deduce that? I'm not challenging, just want to learn myself.

          Its a 4835d 30v P channel, while the other is a 4407 30v P channel too. I was simply asking if they are compatible, considering both specsheets pretty much read the same specs.

            Thought it would be better I asked. Thankyou.

              I see. I couldn't get to that from the 1st link, I'm sorry.

              Edit: Even worse, I'm starting to mix up numbers in my head now. Getting older really sucks in some ways.

                Google datasheets for the said part number.

                  A better choice would be a 2SA1124

                  get the data sheet through Digi-key and compare.

                  ft is higher but the rest is very similar

                      Onkyo A8200 - Not the right voltages in some transistors
                      by Francesc V.
                      Hi:

                      I am trying to repair this amplifier that I've bought as faulty. I've found some transistors damaged, the ones where I am drawing a red circle.

                      With the final transistors not yet installed (the expensive ones), I've started to measure some voltages:

                      Where I am supposed to have 1.12V (base Q524/Q523) I am reading -42V..................both channels don't seem ok.
                      Where I am supposed to have -1.12V (base Q526/Q525) I am reading -44V..................both channels don't seem ok.
                      I removed and tested Q514,Q516 & Q513,Q515 but the analyzer...

                      somebody familiar with hasboard repairs? BM1397AD interchangeable with Bm1397AG ? S17+ and T17+
                      by stormanimal83
                      i got myself a complete Antminer T17+ with 3 dead hasboards for a very good price.... for parts i bought S17PRO boards.... i replaced all missing resistors and changed some asics because they were bad... but wihout a tester... i used the miner instead and changed firmware to awesome miner firmware for better and faster diagnoses via miner log and lower fan speed...

                      for my understanding and what i read on the internet these asics should be interchangeable in one chain but in my case i´m getting no more communication to none of the asics on all 3 boards. 2 of the boards weren´t in...

                      Sundown SFB-8000D What are these transistors?
                      by redbaron1007
                      I had a Sundown SFB-8000D amp come into the shop yesterday that wasn't giving any output. The guy who brought it in said he bought it off some crack head on Facebook marketplace for a good price, but bought it knowing it was broken. Apparently the original owner was cutting out the transistors to the right of the ones pictured whenever one would blow and take the output out. Best I can figure he also cut the legs on the S5 and S6 ic's as well and soldered them back together.

                      My problem is Sundown decided in the factory to remove the original markings on the IC's and now I can't figure...

                      MSI Crosshair 15 A11UEK. Need help with Transistors!!!
                      by Bob Wong
                      Welcome badcaps, repairing a Crosshair 15, in need of transistor specifics. Received a broken laptop that's was perfect for repair, threw away the looser transistors in a haste... Should and could have salvaged them.
                      In any case, I will be posting all my discoveries to this forum as a thanks in advance. Thanks in advance lol.

                      P.S. If anyone is familiar with such things, as in, If anyone knows that MSI uses one or one of a few types of transistors when marked with a number please let me know how I can find more specifics before I start throwing hail marys.

                      Marantz PM-66SE Burns Transistors
                      by hyva_ana
                      Hello,

                      While ago I replaced those big filter caps to that amplifier. After that started to happen. I connected the amplifier normally to the mains and almost immediately several transistors burned out. I really didn't do anything else (at least on purpose) than replaced those big caps C801 and C802.

                      After that I replaced those burned transistors (I can't remember exactly what they were) and measured all the others, and now everything should be ok. But, when I power up that amplifier part with two bench power supplies connected in series there is obviously still something...
